When asked about her first time, Schumer said that the circumstances were less than desirable.

“My first sexual experience was not a good one. I didn’t think about it until I started reading my journal again,” she said. “When it happened, I wrote about it almost like a throwaway. It was like, And then I looked down and realized he was inside of me. He was saying, ‘I’m so sorry’ and ‘I can’t believe I did this.”

According to The Huffington Post, she also told the magazine that the incident happened 17 years ago and there were ‘so many factors’ involved. She even spoke about another time it had happened, saying “I had another time with a boyfriend where I was saying, ‘No, stop,’ and it was just completely ignored.”
